05-12-07, 04:49 PM I'm playing a Gatekeeper Druid, and I'm sure somewhere I saw that Gatekeeper druids don't use poison / disease attacks against their foes.

I'm really new to the Eberron setting and I've searched all over to find this again - I get the feeling it was in a feat description but I'm really not sure - its possible its even another Druid sect who do not use poison and I just got mixed up.

Can you please enlighten me on this one, its driving me mad because there are some really really good druidic poison spells that I'd love to use :P

Thanks in advance!

05-13-07, 06:25 AM I'm pretty sure that Gatekeepers would use anything they have, including poison and disease against Abberations.

The only thing I can think of that you might be getting confused with is the Children of Winter sect. Their speciality feats/abilities give them extra resistances against poison and disease. This is mostly because they actively like using them though.

Wardens of the Wood might have reservations against disease attacks perhaps. Otherwise, no idea.

05-15-07, 08:57 PM It's in Faiths of Eberron, under the Other Cults chapter. It's in the flavor text of the section on Gatekeepers, not in a feat (maybe a sidebar).

They say that they're "better than that" and have to "set an example".
